    Are you supposed to tip furniture delivery guys?

    Im getting a 2 peice sectional delivered tomorrow. Am I expected to tip them or no? They get paid by the hour, I don't know if they expect a tip too. And how much

          Tip them nicely and they will even put it in the right spot for you and drag the old furniture off.

                  Tip them in advance, otherwise your coffee table's going to loose a leg or two.

                      My tip is usually a piece of advice like

                      "Just think if you studied in school as a kid, you would probably own the company" Hope it was worth it. Don't scratch any walls.

                        I'm sure that goes over well!

                        I've tipped movers before.. but never delivery people.

                                Advice is always beats $$$......dancers sometimes beg for tips at the ghetto strip clubs I frequent....would you like to tip me for my dance?

                                I usually tell 'em...here?s a tip......if I thought you were worthy of a tip I would have already done that......but here is another tip....work at a better club where you don?t have to beg the customers.

                                  u could tip them, but dont tip em too hard; they might fall down when they still got your furniture in their hands.

                                      Yes its always nice to tip the delivery drivers. A lot of the time they will set everything up for you as well.

                                                  That's why you pay the delivery fees.

                                                    $20 is decent. They'll deliver about 100 couches a day and make out about 30-40% of the time.

                                                        i dont, only reason why i tip pizza drivers is because they usually have to pay for their gas, car and they dont make much as it is already.

                                                            When we had a new sectional sofa delivered here a couple months ago, I decided that I wasn't going to tip them. I really didn't even know if society deemed furniture delivery guys 'tip worthy'.

                                                            The delivery guys show up and bring the sofa in, then the main guy looks at me expectantly. I reached out and shook his hand and thanked him up and down, but he didn't even say a word. He just walked out the door.

                                                            I felt bad, especially since I always overtip whenever we go out. My advice to you would to slip the delivery guys a $20, or at least $10.

                                                              Yeah, i'll give them a $10. I think that's reasonable.

                                                                      Getting your hair cut. Why?! I just paid you the set fee and now you want more? Just charge more to begin with!

Of course, this is after you fed me bull shit for 5 minutes about how cute I am. Listen, I have a mirror, I know you're lying!

                                                                      Taking a cab. You do the same damn job every other Russian is, why should I give you an extra $5? You should be happy I didn't call you a prick and tell you to fuck off for smashing my face into the window while zipping around the exit ramp.

                                                                      And now delivery guys? I just paid $50-100 to have my piece of furniture delivered, now I need to pay extra just to get it in one piece? We're rewarding these people for the WRONG behavior. We need to dig up Pavlov.
